    • It's not really off the beaten path, because it's featured prominently in Lonely Planet, but the Dana Nature Reserve is pretty cool. The problem is that it's really sleepy there, and if you are a solo traveler it's not obvious whatsoever where are the featured hiking trails that LP mentions. There is a person at the visitor center, but when I was there he was constantly on the phone, and couldn't really recommend what I should do with limited time.

    If you are on limited time you might want to just start from Dana village and hike down into the canyon a ways. You are quickly 'away from it all' and it's very peaceful.

     Looks like a great place to visit. I didn't have any problems in Yemen either when I told people I'm an American. (I was tempted to say I'm Canadian).

     The camel x'ing brings back memories. Glad you slept under the stars in Wadi Rum. I didn't hide my Yank status either, though I didn't proclaim it. Was never an issue. Had a lively poitical debate w/our driver. I love Jordan and the peeps are great.    		mfas2000 Fri Oct 12, 2007 15:20 UTC
